THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION.
The President Designates Thusrtlay, Nov.
yember gath, rs the Day for
Thanksgiving.

The goodness and mercy of God which
has followed the American people during
all the days of the past year claim their
greatful recognition and acknOwledg.
ment. by His omnipotent power He
has protected us from war and pestilence
and from every national calamity; by
His gracious favor the earth has yielded
a generous return TO the labor of the
husbandman and every path of honest
toll has led to comfort and contentment;
by His loving kindness the hearts of our
people have been replenished with fra
ternal sentiment and patriotic endeavor,
and by His unerring guidance we have
been directed in the way of national
prosperity.
To the end that we may, with one
accord, testify our gratitude for all these
blessings, l, Grover Cleveland, President
of the United States, do hereby desig-
nate and set apart Thursday, the twenty
fourth day of November next, as n
day of thanksgiving and prayer, to be
observed by all the people of the land.
On that day let all secular work and
employment be suspended; and let our
people assemble in their accustomed
places of worship, and, with prayer and
songs of praise, give thanks to the Heav-
emily Father for all that He has done for
Us; while We humbly implOre the forgive
ness Of our sins and a continuance of His
mercy. Let families and kindred be
reunited on that day, and let their hearts,
filled with kindly cheer and afiectlonate
"reminiscences, be turned in thankfulness
TO the source of all their pleasures and
the Giver of all that makes the day glad
and Joyous. And in the midst of Oul
happiness let us remember the poor
the needy and the unfortunate, and, 10y
our gifts of charity and ready benevo
lence, let us increase the number of thos,
: who with greatful hearts shall join il
our thanksgiving.
In witness whereof i have set my
hand and caused the seal of the UniteC
States to lie hereto affixed. Done a

We can sit in our sanctum and, look
across the prettiest town in the noun

natl. But for all this Spectators are
slow to move, and the monied moss-backs

We have not seen all the world, and
for that reason may be a little enthusiast
tic about this part of it, but we would
like for some one who has been fortunate
enough to "swing around the circle" to
tell us few things. And among them,
we get up at the head of the column to
inquire: If there is another section on
the globe that contains so great guam
tity of bituminous, camel and cokirg
coal of equal quality? If there is an
other section in the world that contains
such variety of timber, Of equal quail
ity? If anywhere there can be found
superior building stone, and in such inn
mense amount? II there is another sec
lion where coking coal, bituminous coal,
camel coal, iron ore and timber can be
found in such proximity If there is
anywhere more mica, and of equal puri
ty2 If there is anywhere such potters'
clay? If there is anywhere more pretty
women or a more hospitable people ?
Finally, if there is any territory with a

can learn something to his advantage by
answering the foregoing questions, and
the rich nabobs of Kentucky who believe
they can be answered affirmatiyely, will
find it otherwise if they will come here
and see for themselves. Sights good"
is a slang phrase, but it will prove a
:ruism to every man who will investigate
this section of Eastern Kentucky, and
every man who will aid in the develop
ment of the vast store of wealth in this
region, will reap remunerative reward
in return, Kentuckians, for the sake of
the blessed land that is your birth-right,
turn this way. Try by every honest
means to induce immigration to, and in
vestment in, this mountain section. We
can not hope to develop all this wealth
until you do. Foreign capital will not
come in when home capital is being sent
abroad. Lend a helping hand to the land
you profess to love, and we will soon
cease to be pointed at rs laggards. Ten
years from today Kentucky will prove
the pride and the browning jewel of the
pyramid of prosperous States. "Where
ignorance is bliss, tits folly to be WISE"
but the Kentuckian who will go else
where to invest, in the face of these
facts is, indeed-A FOOL!
